Re: Its Official!
God no!
They pay me from leaving home to getting home @ double time plus I can claim the mileage(108) at 45p/mile. Anytime they want me I'm there!
Mind you that is teh downside, 108 miles a day to go to work!

Thank you, obviously I should have known it would be an IT job which, kind of, puts me out of the running. If they have anything going for a boring old accountant let me know, I fit that bill pretty well.

Gordon Brown needs someone who is good at financial know how. Give him a bell at 11 or is it 10 Downing Street.

the only way that job could get better is if hooters opened up across the road and maybe a brothel for the single gentleman
